Universal
White Cement Company® was established in 1995 with one product, Universal Blended White Cement. Developed
specifically for the swimming pool industry, our patented
pozzolan blended cement offered the pool plasterers greater
durability, workability and increased cement strength. With
the success of Universal Blended White Cement, Universal has
researched and developed other high performance products and
admixtures for the pool market and white cement pre-cast and
construction industry. Universal White Cement Company has
always strived to use the best materials available in developing
and producing all of our products. In 1996, Universal White
Cement Company contracted Penn State University to research
the effects of our pozzolan blends on cementitious materials.
An excerpt from the assessment report is following:
"A pozzolan is defined as a 'siliceous
or siliceous and aluminous material which in itself possesses
little or no cementing property but will, in a finely divided
form and in the presence of moisture, chemically react with
calcium hydroxide at ordinary temperatures to form compounds
possessing cementitious properties'. Countless laboratory
studies and construction projects have documented the benefits
generated by partial replacement of cement with a pozzolan
or finely divided mineral. When used in correct proportions,
a pozzolan will enhance the compressive strength of the hardened
concrete material and will inhibit several types of chemical
attack. These types of chemical attack include sulfate resistance,
alkali-silica reaction, delayed ettringite formation, and
chloride ion ingress."
